Wrapped like a green cloak
around the shoulders of Canada, from Newfoundland and Labrador to British
Columbia and the Yukon, the boreal forest covers over 50% of Canada's land
mass. The Canadian Boreal presents one of the last and best opportunities in the
world to protect vast tracts of undisturbed wilderness. The film follows two
canoe trips through the forest, showcasing the magnificent Nahanni River in the
Northwest Territories and the more industrialized Athabasca River in Northern
Alberta. Sadly, during the journey down the Athabasca River,
viewers witness the effects of industrial development.
